Liverpool full squad to face AC Milan confirmed.
Liverpool have confirmed their 23-man squad to face AC Milan in their Champions League opener tomorrow night.
There are no major surprises, with Harvey Elliott the only first-team player absent as he recovers from a fractured foot. Otherwise, it is as expected. Federico Chiesa will be on the bench, at a minimum, at the San Siro.
The summer signing from Juventus was omitted from Saturday’s 1-0 loss to Nottingham Forest as Liverpool’s perfect start to the season was ended. But UEFA rules allow 12 players on the substitutes’ bench rather than nine in the Premier League. Therefore, Chiesa is set for his first match involvement.
Liverpool: Alisson, Gomez, Endo, Van Dijk, Konate, Diaz, Szoboszlai, Nunez, Mac Allister, Salah, Chiesa, Jones, Gakpo, Jota, Tsimikas, Robertson, Gravenberch, Jaros, Kelleher, Alexander-Arnold, Quansah, Morton, Bradley.
